A fairytale ending isn’t just for fiction...

The Borrow-a-Bookshop is recovering, seven months after the winter flood that destroyed all its wares. When newest resident Joy Foley arrives in Clove Lore with her daughter, five-year-old Radia Pearl, she is set to drag the Bookshop into the 21st century by virtue of her tech expertise.

But Joy has a secret. She is on the run from Radia Pearl’s father. She can’t settle down here or anywhere... So when Radia Pearl befriends Monty Bickleigh, ex-fisherman and the new cook at The Siren’s Tail pub, Joy finds herself growing closer to him and the quirky community of Clove Lore.

With her heart softened by the magic of Clove Lore, can Joy's new friends – and Monty – be enough to convince her to stop running away?

An uplifting, gorgeously romantic read that will warm your heart, ´Something New at the Borrow a Bookshop´ is perfect for fans of Jenny Colgan and Trisha Ashley.
